  Went for Xian Liang's wake juz now. hmmzz every1 seemed to have prepared themselves for it le. not so many pple broke down. hopefully& nbsp; our presence& nbsp; will be a source of strength to his family. E 2 testimonials dedicated to him gave me a flitting impression of his last moments here.
really inspired by his strength and his faith in the Almighty. he even dedicated a poem to&
nbsp;
his frenz&
nbsp;
to tell&
nbsp;
dem to be strong ( hope I can get it from some1 to publish here) I feel it's such a cruel fate. only 18. dere was so much he wanted to do,  so much he needed to do,  but yet time did not permit such luxuries. to think tt when I last left Dunman he was still a strong and healthy Scout wif bundles of energy to match. how much a year can change. but the worst pain felt has to be those that he has left behind. I hope they cope well.
Xian Liang would have wished dem to.  " While some pple lie on their deathbeds fighting for their lives and the right to live,  yet there r foolish others living who entertain the thought of death.  Life is so porous and fragile. so pls treasure it. it's a privilege to live. and privileges can be taken away as easily as it can be bestowed upon.  Take care.  &
